Renato, you are spot on regarding the "sole rights" rort, it not only stops US sellers from shipping here but if the local agent decides not to bring something in to sell here then you're stuffed!!
One way around this is if you have a friend in the US then you can often buy, and pay for, an item that normally is "restricted" and have it shipped to their address. They then re-post it to you (or bring it with them if they're coming out here).
